Abstract
Mesyar marriage and friend marriage are among the modern marriages introduced in recent years. Jurisprudents and thinkers have different opinions regarding the correctness and legitimacy of these marriages. In mesyar marriage the wife ignores alimony, sexual partnership and the right to live with a man while he has not much authority over her. This kind of marriage is spreading fast in Arabic countries of Persian Gulf and Afghanistan and there are some internet sites propagating it. Friend marriage is practiced to legitimize the relation of two friends (opposite sex). In this kind of marriage the wife stays in her fatherâs house. The present paper first introduces the modern marriages, then discusses the reasons behind their emergence and finally their legitimacy, advantages and deficiencies are analyzed.
